“ "One for the pros. Not outrageously powerful, but highly accurate. This weapon really comes into its own in the hands of someone with good aim." ”
— In-game description
“ Its shots don't spread much, and it has excellent rapid-fire capability. It could be said to be a bit lacking in attack power, but zero in on a target and they'll burst in no time flat. Plus, this bad boy comes equipped with S Weapon Sub Suction Bomb.png Suction Bombs as a sub weapon, and S Weapon Special Bomb Rush Suction Bomb.png Bomb Rush as a special weapon. ”

 Sheldon's Introduction

For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It's a little lacking in power, but it provides pretty good cover with its rapid fire. You can limit your opponent's movements with S2 Weapon Sub Toxic Mist.png Toxic Mist, and then complete the domination with the S2 Weapon Special Inkjet.png Inkjet special! I recommend this for aggressive players who want to lay the smackdown on their opponents!
